Develop and implement electromechanical systems for the manufacture and assembly of high-temperature superconducting magnets as part of an R&D programme. Responsibilities include design, maintenance, documentation, logistics coordination, and testing of electromechanical equipment.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement dedicated systems to produce high-temperature superconductor-based (HTS) coils, considering mechanical, electrical and control aspects, according to applicable safety regulations and industry standards.
  • Conduct regular maintenance of machinery, electromechanical systems and technical infrastructure in the HTS magnet laboratory.
  • Prepare technical documentation, including procedures, test and measurement reports, and ensure traceability of components.
  • Coordinate component logistics and stock for assigned assemblies; initiate and follow up manufacturing requests and purchase orders.
  • Perform or organise acceptance tests for manufactured components and assemblies.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent relevant experience in the field of Electro-mechanical Engineering or a related field.
  • Hands-on experience in design and manufacture, assembly and maintenance of complex electromechanical equipment.
  • Experience with quality documentation, including working with procedures, compiling tests and measurements reports and component traceability.
  • Experience with computer-aided design (CAD) tools for electromechanical design would be an asset.
  • Previous experience with superconducting systems would be an asset.
  • A valid driving licence.
  • Ability to work in radiation controlled areas.
